We've all been there when you've taken the Midas out and it has spat it's dummy out seeking revenge for the overdue service or lack of a recent wash, what's your best bodge been to get you home again?
Mine from today was pretty bodge tastic. Went to drive to work today and because of all the mass hysteria there's not a drop of diesel in the village and I've learned not to try and cover much distance in the Rangey if the fuel light is on. Plan B grab the Midas from it's languishing spot at the bottom of the drive and despite having lots of trim missing due to it's imminent fettling the old girl fires up on the first turn of the key and has juice...bonus. On arriving to work sensed there was something wrong...mainly due to the coolant running out of the drivers side headlamp bowl! The heater pipe elbow on the head has developed a nice pin hole which is squirting coolant at the back of the headlight. Get you home bodge of the day was 4 cable ties and the rubber foot from an old PC case we had in the office. Reduced the flow very nicely and got me home tonight without losing too much coolant
